 Torquay
|
|
| Torquay,
part of Torbay, the English Riviera,
is built on several hills leading down to the coast.
It has a major shopping
area, which is car free so use the car parks, with theatre,
cinema, restaurants, and clubs.
Home of Torquay United who play at Plainmoor.
The large modern marina
now adds to the towns attractiveness, book your sea cruises
at the harbourside.
Whilst the town centre attracts most people, excellent beaches
can be found at Babbacombe, with a cliff railway to take you
down, and other beaches around the coast. Water sports
available on the main beach.
Lots of things to do and see, wet or dry weather.
